ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

The Needle's Eye Snare (Cook Medical) is an effective tool for extracting leads via a femoral vein. However, it sometimes fails to grasp the lead. We describe an alternative method of successfully grasping a lead by creating a wire-loop around the lead with the help of a steerable introducer.
